‘Shroud of secrecy’ over investigation into Bruce Lehrmann rape accusations, lawyer tells court

The case involving Bruce Lehrmann, a Liberal party staffer accused of rape, has drawn attention to a secretive investigation process where key evidence like police notebooks and diary entries remain undisclosed. His lawyer, Zali Burrows, revealed that the prosecution is not providing requested information from its brief of evidence, raising concerns about transparency in the probe. The defence seeks access to unredacted phone records and all police documentation related to the case, claiming this could bolster their argument against the allegations.
